Tutorial Flight no STARS

Featured Replies

Hey all, Was doing the Tutorial Flight, got to the point where you setup the Arrival, and my FMC has no STARS at all for LSZH. Anyone have any ideas as to why? or anywhere I can download it from?

hmmm....if you dont have access to Navigraph's excellent AIRAC package, I suggest you can find the charts for the airport arrivals you wish to do on the internet, and you can create the waypoints yourself on the FMC...then it is just a matter of entering any restrictions the STAR arrival needs and bingo!

It should have them. The default install of the MD-11 had them in there.

It comes loaded with a very old AIRAC. You need to press the key for the very last waypoint before destination and select STARS.

Is it possible the 737NG(Original one not the NGX) overwrote the MD-11 Files with it's files? As I installed them after the MD-11..

I forget the tutorial destination, it's been awhile since I flew it. Try looking in the pmdg/sidstar folder you should see the file named icao.txt where the icao is the code for the location. The reason you are not seeing the stars could be because you erred in the entering of the destination in an earlier step. Seems unlikely but worth checking. An older or new sidstar file should still have stars in it for that location, where ever it is.

Zurich - LSZH Prior to posting I checked the folder the LSZH.txt had no SIDs or STARS either way I've fixed, got a newer Cycle set.

Glad you got it sorted out, and oh by the way we use full names here.
